I bought the product after a magazine review and yes it did live up to the review!
Advantages: image of the brand Disadvantages: everything
...my first review. Yves Saint Laurant is a very expensive cosmetics brand for me and when I I bought this foundation I thought the quality would match to my expectation and I was deceived greatly.
First of all nothing betoken this disappointment, I was at my favourite cosmetic shop and I had no precise idea of what I would like to buy this time but I new I would like to change my face foundation - l'oreal airwear... As we are talking of very expensive ... ...allow itself doing such a crap.
The box and the bottle are marvellous, I was blinded by the gold, but not all the gold that shines.... What I was searching was a light foundation which allows to breath my skin and hides any skin problems if they occur.
Even if I tried the colour on my skin, the colour was not the problem. The problem begun when I tried to put this foundation on my face. The texture is creamy and pretty liquid, but on my face it ...

This Yves Saint Laurent product is definitely the best foundation that I have come across. Okay so most sane people wouldn't pay £29 for a foundation, but if you want a foundation that gives good even coverage with the appearance that you are not wearing make up then this one is definitely for you. The colour matches my skin colour perfectly and is so easy to apply, leaving my skin looking flawless and radiant (which believe me it isn't). Since I've ...

Advantages: No mess on your fingers Disadvantages: Easy to squeeze out too much, the foundation can be a little dry on the skin
I had seen this foundation advertised in a magazine and was intrigued by it, but not enough to head out particularly to buy it. However I was in my local department store having a look at the beauty products and these caught my eye. I discussed with the very friendly helpful YSL beautician my skin type and the fact that my skin tone can be a little patchy and he suggested that I try the perfect touch foundation. He offered to try it out on my skin before I bought it and proceeded to skillfuly make over my face. He explained that the perfect touch is designed to glide on to your skin and you do not need a lot to achieve a good coverage. A tip he gave me was not to attempt to put the foundation directly onto my face, but to squeeze a small amount onto the back of my hand and to apply it to my skin from there. On viewing the result ...
Advantages: soft on the skin, easy application, dries like a powder, covers oil/shine Disadvantages: expensive,difficult to blend,have to have the exact colour to skintone
When I first tried this, the lady put it on for me in the shop and when I left my friends said I looked airbrushed and I loved the feel of it so I ran back and bought it! It was £28 at the time but I thought it was worth it. I put it on the next day and realised the colour was one shade too dark for my skin but thought it wouldn't matter - it did! I still have to wear it when I've got a proper tan or else my face is orange compared to my neck and I find it extremely difficult to blend! It feels lovely and doesn't clog the skin also, unlike a lot of other liquid foundations it dries like a powder so you're not as oily and shiny which is the problem I usually have! I see the price has gone down since I bought it so I would recommend it for a cheaper price but not for the price I bought it! Also the brush is great for easy application ...
Advantages: great bottle, applies easily, makes face look quite flawless Disadvantages: VERY expensive
i got this at the airport in a country where the currency makes this product cheaper, i would never ever spend £38 on it!!!!!!
well whilst i was on holiday i had a facial and i for this product and the next day at work people said my skin looked flawless- i don't know if it was the foundation or facial????
i tried it on badly in the shop as there was a women standing over my shoulder repeatedly asking and telling things about the product so i picked up the nearest colour to my skin i could and walked to the other side of the shop. i know this is really bad but she was VERY pressurizing. When i got home a put some on the back of my hand and it blended very well on my face although it is a different colour to previous foundation - less pink. it applies very easily and for the first few uses i thought it was amazing. However now i think ...
